Laguna Beach Oceanfront Homes

Everyone from real estate agents to home buyers are talking about the low inventory of housing in Southern California and how frustrating it is to find a suitable property at a reasonable price in today's real estate market.  A lot of times these hidden gems may be out there but not visible on the open real estate market and hidden from being seen anywhere on the Internet.  Sometimes the best deals are those that are on "hold" status for one reason or another.

Laguna Royale is a great place to find beach front condos in Laguna Beach.  The building was built in 1962 in the South Laguna area of Laguna Beach and is one of the most common places to find ocean view condos for sale under $3 million dollars.  The building itself has many condos inside the structure that are located in three different areas.  The condos located at the top are located further back from the ocean and have wonderful ocean views but don't have the full ocean front effect.  Often, roof top decks views can be seen in addition to the ocean views.  The mid level section of the Laguna Royale is where you will find direct ocean front view condos.  Of course, the better the views the more expensive the real estate.  Expect to find prices in this
